Hallelujah. I’ve been waiting for this day since the west bridge caved in. Best part is our Belle Isle bridge doesn’t have to stop causeway car traffic with their blaring radios to let Cigarette boats through. Hope this takes years to complete…

The bridge is officially closed to all — on four wheels, two wheels, sneakers or strollers. Some runners are still crossing it in the early morning, going around the barricades. There is a designated bike lane on the north side of the MacArthur Causeway, though the ride is a bit unnerving.
